To make this recipe:

Prepare the marinade by mixing the olive oil, 2 lemon juices, plain yoghurt and Crispy poultry barbecue rubs.
Brush the chicken fillets on both sides and marinate in a cool place for 1 hour.
Cook the rice for about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix the 2 plain yogurts, lemon juice and finely chopped chives in a bowl, season with salt and pepper to taste and chill.
Cook the marinated chicken for 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet.
